Notes From The Road


Observed on the road during my recent trip to Beantown:

- Nothing lifts your heart higher than having a little boy wave at you the intense enthusiasm.

- I always experience a primal thrill riding my bike over big bridges. Without a metal cage around your body, you instantly sense the immense scale of the world as you, a tiny dot, pass through it. The world feels majestic and you're lucky travelling through it.

- I find it feminine and irresistibly attractive when women, sitting in a passenger-seat of a car, slip off their shoes and lift their bare or stockinged feet onto the dashboard or window. Extra points for bright nail-polish.

P.S., The above view is famous to anyone who's visited Boston. It's near Kenmore Square with Fenway Park being the building on the right side.

  1. When I see picutres like this I miss the USA! I loved the two roadtrips I made there (one in the West and one in the East)!

    And yes, absolutely re: feet on the dashboard. Bryan may disagree with you however on that point, it always drives him nuts when I do this :) XOXO

  3. I would be frightened I think on a bike going over a bridge... but I can also see where in can be enthralling and perfect for the bit of perspective that you describe.

    And I love to put my feet up!

  5. It's just the sweetest when little kids take an interest in what you're doing (or wearing). Each time a youngster (usually, but not always, a little girl) calls me a "princess", "Barbie", or one of a handful of Disney characters based on how I'm dressed, it always makes my day and instantly melts my heart. :)

  7. Little boys and girls waving always my heart go up. As for legs with bright nailpolish - I always smile when see it and tend to do it myself (when weather is fine)

  8. I love waving back at kids who wave at me ... they always brighten up my day!!!

    Feet on dashboards frighten me as you can get badly hurt.
